Vintage Graffiti: ‘We Are the Kings of the 3 Yard’

The tag above, dated 1984, the year in subway history when the MTA decided to pull any trains from service that were defaced (bonus fact: Also the year that Bernard Goetz shot 4 teenagers on a subway train), was spotted next to the 3 Train Yard on 145 St. Its hard to make out some of the names, but one of these kings was for sure graffiti legend BLADE. Some photos of the trains he smashed here.
